It is rhubarb season which means strawberry rhubarb pie time! I first had this pie back in 2005 from the lovely Chef Erin (famous for her Mac and Cheese recipe). I have been begging her for the recipe since, and now 6 years later I have it. I was invited to a shrimp and grits dinner party and knew that was the perfect time to try out this recipe! It was just as tasty as I remembered. This is just the recipe for the filling, feel free to use your favorite pie crust recipe. You can use a frozen pie crust but will need two as there is a top to this. – ts
